President Gotabaya Rajapaksa invited MPS Wimal Weerawansa, Vasudeva Nanayakkara, Udaya Gammanpila and Tiran Alles to re-join the government when they met him on Saturday.

Weerawansa and Gammanpila who held Cabinet posts in the government were stripped of their portfolios after they held a public

seminar critical of the current state of affairs. Afterwards, Nanayakkara also decided to keep away from ministerial duties in protest.

Weerawansa told Daily Mirror that the president asked them to re-join the government but they had expressed their reservations to do so unless an interim administration was formed in consultation with all the parties.

He said he, along with others, said the same during yesterday’s meeting with Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa. Weerawansa was the Industry Minister and Gammanpila was the Energy Minister. (KELUM BANDARA)

    It is bad idea to get Weerawansa, Gammanpila and Vasu in the new government. These culprits should be eliminated.

    Freddy Monday, 04 April 2022 10:27 AM

    Apoo.. this will never change unless they are kicked out fully by the people

    N SENA Monday, 04 April 2022 10:32 AM

    THAT IS NOT WHAT THE PEOPLE WANT. THE PEOPLE WANT YOU TO GO HOME.

    Neil Monday, 04 April 2022 10:32 AM

    Alam Monday, 04 April 2022 10:33 AM

    The fleas going back to the dogs ass

    Pardon Monday, 04 April 2022 10:35 AM

    Both parties are shameless...

    Sanjeewa Wickramage Monday, 04 April 2022 10:40 AM

    None of these trio should be in a new cabinet. They are well passed their sell by date. These are only talkers and they have not delivered

    Nimco Monday, 04 April 2022 10:43 AM

    This is disastrous get together....

    Birat Monday, 04 April 2022 10:47 AM

    No no no don’t need these buggers

    VJ Monday, 04 April 2022 11:27 AM

    As long as you are there, you will be making such stupid decisions. Just quit and go home.

    Chris Monday, 04 April 2022 02:09 PM

    This President is clearly nuts.

    Ram Monday, 04 April 2022 02:42 PM

    Shame Mr President to invite them after they made such a noise about your failure

    Nimal Silva Tuesday, 05 April 2022 04:17 AM

    This was clearly propaganda. The whole thing was staged. Create an illusion of factions and rejoin them under a new banner. Does he take the people for a fool? We need systems level change.

    Neil Tuesday, 05 April 2022 05:54 AM

    Good idea. They all should sink together in the ship and perish for ever.

    Bow wow Tuesday, 05 April 2022 06:58 AM

    His Master's Voices gone silent and the Prez want's to hear the music he loves!!!
